Dutch airline KLM said on Thursday it will shed between 800 and 1,000 more jobs as the coronavirus pandemic is hitting the aviation sector for longer than expected.
KLM CEO Pieter Elbers said recent restrictions announced by the Dutch government on flights to the Netherlands had"added to" the airline's problems but were not the direct cause of the new job cuts. "This reduction is independent of the new measures taken by the cabinet in the past 48 hours," Elbers said.
In another development, Lufthansa is losing €1 million every two hours,"a significant improvement" over the low point of the Covid-19 crisis, the German airline group's chief executive said on Thursday.
